Speakers biography: |
 |
Mr. Vougny started working in the field of patents in 1994 as patent searcher in an IP law firm. He automated some patent data processing and specialized in prior art searches, mainly for litigation cases. During a period in an industrial company he conducted Freedom To Operate researches and studies, drafted patent applications, implemented technical watches and also dealt with trademark and design files.
Mr. Vougny joined the Cabinet Plasseraud in 2002 and focused on the field of consumer products (writing implements, household appliances, packaging) for patent drafting and prosecution, Freedom To Operate opinions and invalidity studies. In 2003, Mr. Vougny trained a first patent search specialist. The Patent Search Department now comprises five patent searchers having at least a master degree in science and degree in IP law for most of them. They are able to cover nearly all technical fields in order to satisfy the various needs of Cabinet Plasseraud’s clients. |
